ALL the original 13 STATES were sovereign.(didn't they tell you that when you were a victim of the "gubmint publick screwls"????)

so was/IS TEXAS. also, PERHAPS, California. (BOTH were REPUBLICS at the time they were admitted to the union.)

FREE STATES created the union. they can just as easily OPT OUT of the union, should the union become tyrannical AGAIN.

The only sovereign nation was Texas.

None of the 13 colonies were sovereign, none had a separate foreign policy.

[fortheDeclaration]

should the union become tyrannical AGAIN.

You think the Federal Gov't is less tyrannical now then it was back in 1860?
